LAW 352 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Provincial Superior, Trial Division, Summary Offence
Document Summary
Do not spend a lot of time summarizing the readings for us (we"ve already read them) Do not look for imaginative ways to say the same thing over and over again in diferent words (we got it the irst time) Do not pad your references or try to run up the word count. Do not make excessive use of i, me, my or mine (irst person is okay, but remember that the paper"s not about you) Do not engage in over-citation, where you"re citing twice in one sentence, or once in every sentence (every two or three sentences is ine, as long as it"s clear where you"re getting the information from) According to gottfredson and hirschi (1990), low self- control is the cause of all crime, all the time. They argue further that low-self control is caused by inefective childrearing, typically carried out by parents or caregivers who themselves lack self-control.
